Bitcoin Editorial Illustration

This editorial illustration on Bitcoin was for an article in the Hong Kong Tatler. As the value of the cryptocurrency has been a bit of a rollercoaster over the past number of years, that formed the main visual for this piece.

People who don’t trust governments and their inflation-prone currencies used to hoard their savings in gold, but now they can do the same thing with Bitcoin. It’s wealth that governments can’t steal from you, so that's what brought the grasping arms into the piece, unable to grab at the Bitcoin hurtling by on the rollercoaster.
